Love You From a Distance

I could never say we could go back and be how it used to
 But every time I think back to late summer in July, I still miss you
 And now our families don't even say a word
 I used to come over every Friday after work
 But that was before all the pain you caused me
 And all the lies you told, it's haunting
 I still see your face when I go to sleep
 I'll always love you, will you always love me?
 I hate that all these memories are so persistent
 And now I know (I know, I know)
 I know how hard it is to move on with my life
 When all of these daydreams come back to me at night
 I hate that it will take time to forget this
 And now I know
 It's better to love you from a distance
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 To love you from a distance
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 Remember when I'd drive you home 'cause you didn't have your license
 We were windows down cruising, thinking, "Damn, I really like him"
 And then I went out and got a new car
 So it didn't break down when we would drive too far
 But that was before all the rain starting falling
 And summer turned into autumn
 I still see your face when I go to sleep
 I'll always love you, will you always love me?
 I hate that all these memories are so persistent
 And now I know (I know, I know)
 I know how hard it is to move on with my life
 When all of these daydreams come back to me at night
 I hate that it will take time to forget this
 And now I know
 It's better to love you from a distance
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 To love you from a distance
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 I hate that I still miss you
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 I wish I could forget you
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 I hate that I still miss you
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 I wish I could forget you
 (Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah)
 I still see your face when I go to sleep
 I'll always love you, will you always love me?
 I hate that all these memories are so persistent
